Hello this page is dedicated to Marilyn Monroe Image below,is an image of Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn paid her way through modeling school by posing for Earl Moran back in the 40"s for $10.00 an hour. Earl Moran is known to be the "Godfather" of "Pinup Art". Their are many ink blotters and calendars with the image of Norma Jeane and Marilyn floating around. I have brought you just a few for your viewing.
Notice the way Marilyn Monroe poses?
Every toe, leg, arm, hand, finger, and curve is in a flowing position. I know the photographer gets some of the credit too! But take the time and check out what I mean compared to the models of today. Date of this pose late 40's. Even then Marilyn had the nack of modeling before she had all the training of a model.
